Camino Verde is revolutionizing cocoa fermentation under the guidance of microbiologist Vicente Norero. This innovative fermentary transforms select Neo-Nacional beans into something extraordinary, using a groundbreaking process of controlled humidity and beneficial organisms that pushes the boundaries of traditional methods.
Each batch reveals a sophisticated flavor profile of rich fudge, subtle almond, and delicate floral notes – a testament to Vicente's scientific precision and artisanal expertise. Their organic-certified beans are carefully fermented in specialized bags and sun-dried on elevated tables, with mechanical backup ensuring consistency even in challenging conditions.
